Idea Centre K210-57078915 Changing to a wireless Adapter

I bought a wireless Linksys Router and I was in the assumption that I had a Wireless adapter. My question is how would I install one I read on this site by removing the modem and replacing it with the wireless am I correct?. Also what kind of wireless adapter would I be looking for. Your website for parts is not working today that is why I am asking. Any help 
Much appreciated.
Solved!

I believe what your are refering to is a wireless receiver.  They make any number of them from USB receivers to the ones that install into your expansion slots.  I installed mine into where the modem was.  Open the case (do not have it plugged in.)  pPull ouot modem card.  And i just put in my old wirelss card. It's a 5 year old Belkin card but gets the job done.  If your looking for a card i recomend tigerdirect.com or newegg.com

  • Wireless Adapter having problems

    My laptop Paviion 15-b008TX contains Ralink Radio Model RT3290. I have issue connecting to the wifi.I have tried updating the latest drivers anduninstalled and install back the wireless adapter again, but none of it works.How can i solve this issue? Can I just change a new wireless adapter outside?If its possible what are the wireless adapter model that is compatible with my laptop? 

    You need to open firewall ports on your cisco router
    Port number are (88 , 3074 , 443 , 10070 - 10080)
    Use port triggering instead of port fowarding.. You can find this under the application and gaming tab. on the setup page of the router. 
    Change the MTU size to 1365. Disable the UPnP. Go to Security tab and uncheck the box 'Filter anonymous internet request'.
    Make sure that the router firmware is upto date.

  • Idea Centre K only starts up 50% of the time; I am confused.

    Hello:
    I have a new Lenovo Idea Centre K desktop with 64bits and Windows Vista. Unfortunately, the computer only makes it past the "Lenovo" booting screen about half the time. The computer freezes on this screen, I must hold down the power button, then start again, where it will always start the next time. This freezing occurs before the beep part with the blinking cursor. If it makes it past the Lenovo screen, there is always only one beep. Usually, the times it doesn't start are after 12 or more hours when the computer is turned off. After I shut it down and try again, it will start every time and work fine thereafter. I checked that it is properly set to 115V for my regional power needs. This issue is annoying because I must watch the computer power up rather than push the button and let it power while I do other activities. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks:
    Dan 

    All,
    We can look into the issue generically and see if there are any thoughts on things to try.   To make more progress, it would be helpful to know which model K series desktop you have, and a bit about your configuration, and whether this pattern is consistent.
    Does it always fail to boot all the way through on first power up, and then always successfully go through on the retry?   What, if anything has been added or externally connected to the system via USB or other ports?

  • Windows 8.1 freeze on any hardware scan or changes. USB wireless keyboard mouse not working

    Problem : System Freezes frequently on any hardware scan or changes.
    Symptom : Wireless Keyboard Mouse not working.
    Caused by : VMkbd.sys located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers.
    Issue : VMware player or VMware Workstation installed on Windows 8.1 causes compatibility issue leading to system freeze
    Soultion : Please follow steps below
    Step 1: Start > run > regedit
    Step 2: Locate to this registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e96b-e325-11ce-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    Step 3: On the left side plane, Right click on the registry {4d36e96b-e325-11ce-BFC1-08002BE10318} and then export it as backup. Just to be safe.
    Step 4: Edit the UpperFilters, The value current would be kdbclass vmkbd. Remove the vmkbd. So only value left would be kbdclass.
    Step 5: Restart your system and connect your USB wireless reciever. If all is well it will not freeze your windows now.
    This worked for me. Hope this works for you. Enjoy..!!

    Hi, I'm working on a document in PAges 09. Any idea on how to change the document color? I want it black instead of white.

    Nichelle,
    You must add your own background object, and then make it Black.
    Insert > Shape > Rectangle
    In the Wrap Inspector, set to Floating.
    In the Graphic Inspector, set Stroke to None and set Fill to Black.
    Grab the corners of the document and stretch the document to cover the entire page.
    Back in the Wrap Inspector select "In Background".
    Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.

  • My imac screen display is unfocussed, odd coloured and blurred (caused by rogue cate walking over keyboard).  I have no idea what settings have changed or what to check.  Any ideas?!

    My imac screen display is unfocussed, odd coloured and blurred (caused by rogue cate walking over keyboard).  I have no idea what settings have changed or what to check.  Any ideas?!

    It could be a number of keyboard shortcuts, here's a few.
    If the screen is zoomed,  hold CNTL and scroll down with mouse or trackpad.
    If screen looks like a negative,  hold down CNTL OPT CMD and click 8.
    Let us know how what other symptoms are shown.

    I have an i Mac with airport wireless.What steps do I need to take to change name of wireless(airport)???

    You should use Airport Utility, in your Utilities folder (or you can search for it in Spotlight, the magnifying glass in the top right of your screen) to administer the Airport. There, you can change the wireless network settings, including the network name.

  • Idea centre B series turns itsself off.

    Hello All,
    I was wondering if anyone can help?  I have an idea centre B520 and when I turn it on it begins to startup but then turns itself off again within a few seconds.
    If I turn it on again everything works but very slowly and I now have a long start up time ( twice what it was before this problem)
    I wondered if there is anyone who knows why this is happening and how to solve it?
    Many thanks,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for posting and welcome to the Lenovo Community,
    I’d like to ask you if you can see that the machine turns off while working on the machine or it would happen only during the booting.
    And please share with us if you’ve installed a new software recently that after that you can see that this problem happen with you.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Soha

    Hi Docol,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to inform you that there is no NOVO button in your K410 Computer, but the OKR (One Key Recovery) menu can be accessed by tapping on “F2” key once turning on the computer until the Lenovo Rescue System open, then select OneKey Recovery. Below is the link to download the User Guide for the computer and refer page no. 20 for the steps to access and perform OKR.

  • Can I plug a desk top computer into my Idea Centre A310, and if so how?

    I have an Idea Centre which has a great screen, but the centre is running so slowly despite my local pc fixer doing his best to clean it up and using an external HD for most files including photos. So I was wonder if I bought a desk top pc only with say 6-8gb RAM and 1TB HD, could I connect this to the centre just to use the monitor only and if so how? I would get my pc fixer guy to transfer all the info I required off the centre to the desk top pc.

    Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
    I'm not an owner of your model and I could be wrong, but....... Your A310 does have an HDMI IN port which you should be able to use to receive the video signal from another computer that has an HDMI OUT port.  The problem I see is the HDMI IN port on the A310 wouldn't be a direct signal to the display.  The signal would need to be processed by the A310 before it is displayed on the screen and if you are not happy with the A310 performance I suspect it would effect the display from the second computer as well.
    Have you ever had your A310 checked for viruses ?  Or was the performance not to your liking since it was new ?

  • Mobile phones blocked when Idea Centre switched on ?

    Bizarre as it might seem, I have just brought a new Idea Centre deskp top. Ever since then all the mobile phones in the house wont ring or receive text emssages, they go straight to voice mail. I wonder if it is the Bluetooth on the pc that is causing it, if not, might there be some other signal it is sending out.
    I cannot see how to turn off the Bluetooth to see if it is caused by that
    Any ideas ?

    unplug the pc and test your phones
